1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

8-hydroxy-2'deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is an oxidative product removed from DNA following radical oxygen species-induced damage. As a water-soluble molecule, it can be measured non-invasively in urine and is commonly used as a marker for 'whole-body' oxidative stress. However, its validity and reliability in assessing oxidative stress across various chronic diseases and in early carcinogenesis screening in clinical diagnosis and research remain subjects of debate. To determine optimal measurement timing and duration, it is essential to establish the circadian profile of 8-OHdG under everyday life conditions. Here, applying the integrative single-case design, we show the presence of day-night differences for 8-OHdG in continuous time series of two breast cancer survivors while considering different correction approaches. The participants sampled their urine in 12-h-pooled collections over one month. In both subjects, 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher during the day than at night regardless of whether they were corrected by creatinine or urine volume (creatinine corrected: t = -6.43,
